I think this gen looks better than the current model, just simple clean lines without a normal sized grille and squared styling.

Great review my friend. I live this video. I personally own a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with the 6.2L AWD. Couldn’t be any happier with the truck, I’m the 2nd owner and the truck just broke 100K.

I have the prior generation. Just bought my 2002 Sierra S. L. T. It only has 55000 miles. It was a one owner vehicle garage kept. Had to pay top dollar for it, but the previous owner took phenomenal. Share of it look looks brand new inside and out. Will keep it forever. Love this track.
@Joelucas2104 жыл бұрын
I had one exactly like this. Long story short I had two car accidents in it. Both not my fault. And they were exactly a month apart. But the truck itself didn't get to messed up. And I was going 50 when it happened but it shifted the frame just enough to be totaled
@swathdiver4894 жыл бұрын
If only all of them were so nicely optioned! That 6.2 motor outside of the Denali is associated with NHT package (2010-2013), towing increased to over 10,000 pounds. Denalis could also be AWD, not 4x4. Great review kid!

A very good revue, I own a 2011 Sierra SLT all terrain 2wd, silver with the same interior as the test truck 5.3 engine, 135000 miles Z71 and Z85 heavy duty suspension. I'm the second owner and I firmly believe that this will be my last truck I love it that much. Last month I replaced the rear shocks and the struts with the Rancho replacements it rides like new.

But honestly these trucks don't really have to many issues . 1 thing I did do is delete the 4cyl to 8 cyl option mines always v8 .

@@FTFL82 The 5.3 had issues with porosity in the block. My 2011 sounded odd, would miss when started after sitting a day or two. Dealer said there's a TSB but GMC said they wouldn't fix it (new engine). Research shows that issue was fixed in 2015. Apparently it was only on 5.3L and 3.6L (Canyon/Colorado) and cars.
